1. Drawing of the Week
Here’s a little drawing I did from the Drawing Desk. š


I’ve been experimenting with more realistic styles of drawing Characters and this is the first step in that direction. š£
I’m in the process of coloring it now – will share the results later.
2. How to Draw like me?
How do you go about learning to draw from Scratch to making comics and animation? š¤

I put out a detailed podcast on this but here’s a quick 2 min summary š
1. First – Define the Objective – the kind of art you want to do – which is Stylised character design for Comics and animation.Ā
2. Two – Divide your Learning Process into Three phases –Ā
⢠Foundation – Where you master the fundamentals of drawing.
⢠Design – Where you learn the skill of human character design.
⢠Creation– Where you learn Imaginative and Stylised drawing – and do a Project.
3. Here’s a list of Skills you need to focus on learning for each levels
šļø Foundation
⢠Lines and shapes.
⢠Gesture/flow.
⢠Forms and perspective.
⢠Light and shadow.
⢠Measuring and proportions.
āļø Design
⢠Character Design Principles.
⢠Simple Head Anatomy.
⢠Simple Body Anatomy.
⢠Environment and Prop Design.
š§ Creation
⢠Imaginative Drawing.
⢠Stylised drawing Principles.Ā
⢠Creating a Project.
That’s it. Focus on learning these skills one at a time and you’ll be fine.
Use free tutorials online (or drawing camp If you want to save time).
Regardless, this is how I Learned drawing. You can do it too.
